Vote for freedom!

Unfortunate indeed that the gap between this and my last entry is for over a month. I really could not find time due to my ocassional commitments with Dark Project shows and of course a yet so hectic life style at the office. 

Well good we are coming up with a new album but i would keep that off from here as i have a separate place, where i talk about it. This time it's all about the elections. Vote banks are all that we seek for. Notable point is that we always end up having over 50% of the "Junta" voting. A real sad story where you can say that the government is selected without a consent of half of the population who should have voted.

I remember seeing Barack Obama taking the oath for his presidential tenure. If i remember correctly then it was -5 degrees in washington that day, yet it was truely amazing to see how many people had actually turned up to see him. Some of the channels showed reactions from their citizens and each an everyone of them believed they had a change to take over. I won't comment about the after math, even considering that it is too early to do so.

Instead we shall turn our heads back to the nation. I would ask you, would you be there for the oath taking ceremony of our Prime Minister or how many of you would actually look forward in listening to the speech live on national television? I believe i know the answer and so do you...Question to ask here is why? Is it called lack of accountability? Is called taking things for granted? Or is it called Lethargy where you think that things cannot change here even if someone rubs his ass over the word "Change"?

Maybe we won't see an answer in all of these questions. What might give us the clue is the very fact that we still are imprisioned. We are still suffering the after maths of slavery. After all that we fought to get out freedom, our bones have lost the courage to fight. The last day, i was asking someone about her casting her votes, she replied by saying that she doesn't even have a voter's id card. With Amir Khan on television in the middle of every commercial break, i believe we were a bit deaf to hear that. 

You can't even deny us blaming the politicians and always hiding behind the sentence, "All are corupted". Too easy to say, if i ask you to step in for the nation, would you? There are enough reasons for you to site at that time, after all you have dreamt of MBA or an MBBS or maybe the old school engineering degree but politics? Not at all. 

Bottom line time once again. Freedom did come on 15th August 1947 but it is now a chapter in the history books more than anything else. We are strangled in our own lives and have become a slave to it. Wake up India!
